laz.virtualtrees.pas not found on building Lazarus.
« on: January 23, 2025, 10:07:25 pm »
For anyone under Debian/Ubuntu failing to recompile Lazarus because of laz.virtualtrees.pas not found.

Reason is, if you installed Lazarus using Apt or Synaptic, that lazarus directories and files are owned by root. Change ownership to your user so Lazarus has permissions and the problem goes away:

sudo chown -R your_name:your_name /etc/lazarus/
sudo chown -R your_name:your_name /usr/lib/lazarus/

Ran exactly into this. Thanks for your explanation and the solution!

Just a quick note, you should restart Lazarus before re-compiling, otherwise it still fails.
